Peen

I get the impression that Ween are largely written off as a comedy/novel music group, and not one that someone might listen to repeatedly for long-term enjoyment.
This is wrong.
Ween are not only amazingly versatile musicians who can do country music, showtunes, bizzare soundscapes (often all on one album) but also make mean ass pop songs that are up there with Jens Lekman or Sufjan Stevens' 3 minute wonders.

In particular, the album White Pepper is fucking amazing. Sure, it might be a parody on anything the Beatles ever did, but so is most modern music, and this shit is rad. Rather than front-loading all the good tracks at the front of the album, the thing is solid most at the beginning and ends of the record, with the only real lull for me being cheesy Bananas and Blow.

So yeah. Give Ween a chance. Start with White Pepper, it's grouse. Move on to the Mollusk, or Quebec. The latest, La Cucaracha might not be the best, but it's still got some choice cuts too.
